"My son hates reading."
Then pitch him this:
A Spartan boy wakes a dragon
that wants Greece to burn.
He does not make friends with it.
Acenes of Sparta: The Dragon Slayer. Ages 12+.

King Leonidas chained a terrible dragon beneath a Spartan mountain.
He did not kill it. He left it alive, waiting for the day someone would make the mistake of waking it.
That someone was Acenes.
If you discovered the dragon's prison, would you open it—or seal it forever?
@PKMfantasies@SubRosaMagick The Bible indeed sold 19 million US copies last year. Circana calls it a 21-year high.
Mine sold slightly fewer.

#Spartan#boys went hungry by design.
#Xenophon says it was to make them steal, and the beating was for getting caught, not for stealing. (Xen. Lac. 2.5 to 2.8)
Our #story is about one of them. Seven years old, blessed by the #gods to kill a #dragon.

Finally saw the Odessey. My review: 5/10.
Woke stuff (black Helen, non greek crew, sinon) - 1. Making Oddesius guilty - 1. Changing the ending and moral of the story - 3. Nolan turned Oddesius into Frodo who flees the shire. In Homer's version he is Sam who fights to come home.
@WilliamShatner Would you do 1 more Star Trek Movie Bill? The plot would be: Jim didn't get killed in the bulkhead blow out, which was just a cover used to beam jim somewhere else and fake his death. In a time of need, Jim's bastard son learns the truth, and finds him, to save us 1 more time.
@elonmusk@Austen No it is not. Its been over adopted and improperly applied costing millions in cost overunns, because executives are dumb and just rushed to use it without planning. I see this over and over in my day job.
